June of 1976, Alice gave birth to their only child, a son, Robert Jr., this was one of the greatest joys of her life. She cherished their son and loved him dearly to the end. Alice and Robert shared a unique sense of humor, always joking with each other. Example: Alice was glad to give birth to their child in her home state of Louisiana (Shreveport, Louisiana), when the time arrived to go to the hospital, Robert joked and said “OK let’s drive across the state line to Texas and have the baby!” Robert is a Texan, she laughed. It’s a 20 minute drive from the Louisiana state line to the Texas state line.

She was active in The Field Ministry for many years. Her love for the brothers and sisters was always on display. Having strong faith, Alice believed that thru her sickness, Jehovah would be there for her, that truth helped her to endure. She knew that Jehovah was always there while on her sick bed.
